Abstract

Background: One of the most effective strategies for preventing cervical cancer is screening. In developing countries, the implementation and utilization of cervical cancer screening programs remain low. Educational interventions represent one strategy to increase participation in cervical cancer screening. Objective: This review aimed to identify educational interventions used to increase participation in cervical cancer screening. Methods: The inclusion criteria comprised studies that employed educational interventions to increase participation in cervical cancer screening. Literature searches were conducted in three databases—PubMed, Scopus, and ProQuest—and one search engine, ScienceDirect, for publications from 2020 to 2025. This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Methodological quality was assessed using the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs). Results: A total of 10 studies involving 3,882 women who participated in educational interventions for cervical cancer screening were included. All included studies reported that educational interventions—delivered through face-to-face or digital approaches, and based on behavioral theories, community-based education, and couple-based education—were associated with improvements in knowledge, attitudes, risk perception, self-efficacy, and participation in cervical cancer screening. Based on the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for RCTs, most studies demonstrated moderate to high methodological quality. Conclusion: Couple-based education and counselling demonstrate high potential for implementation in Indonesia. This educational approach may help address cultural barriers and limited family support, which are known to hinder participation in cervical cancer screening.

Abstract

Background: Butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea) contains high levels of anthocyanins with potent antioxidant activity, making it a promising natural ingredient for sunscreen formulations. However, the skin safety of sunscreen spray containing this extract must be evaluated before cosmetic application. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the skin irritation potential of sunscreen spray formulations containing butterfly pea flower extract using the patch test method. Methods: A patch test was conducted on 15 male Wistar rats. The test materials included sunscreen spray formulations with butterfly pea flower extract at concentrations of 1% (F1), 2% (F2), and 3% (F3). A base formulation without extract (F0) served as a negative control, and sodium lauryl sulfate served as a positive control. Erythema and edema scores were observed at 24, 48, and 72 hours after application. Results: The mean erythema and edema scores for formulations F1, F2, and F3 were 0.0 ± 0, indicating no signs of skin irritation in all tested groups. The positive control group showed slight erythema (score 2.33 ± 0.5), confirming the validity of the test method. Conclusion: Sunscreen spray formulations containing butterfly pea flower extract at concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 3% did not induce skin irritation in male Wistar rats under the patch test conditions. These findings support the potential of butterfly pea flower extract as a safe natural ingredient for sunscreen products.

Abstract

Background: The drying process in the preparation of herbal material affects the quality, chemical compound content, and mineral composition of herbal ingredients. Barangan banana peel (Musa acuminata Colla) has potential as a preventive dental agent due to its phytochemical and mineral content. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the simplicia quality (moisture content and total ash content) as well as the chemical compound and mineral composition of Barangan banana peel dried using two different methods. Methods: This was a qualitative analytical study. Cleaned and chopped Barangan banana peels were divided into two groups: oven-dried (OD; 60°C for 12 hours) and freeze-dried (FD; -65°C for 4 hours followed by 48 hours of freeze drying). The simplicia was ground using a ball mill (500 rpm for 6 hours). Moisture content was determined using the toluene method, while total ash content was measured by heating at 800°C. Identification of chemical compounds and minerals was performed using GC-MS and XRF, respectively. Results: Moisture content of the OD group was 9.23% and of the FD group was 7.11%; total ash content was 10.83% and 10.60%, respectively. Both met the standards of the Indonesian Herbal Pharmacopoeia (moisture content <10%, total ash content <15%). GC-MS identification revealed that the FD group exhibited a greater variety of chemical compounds (12 components) compared to the OD group (7 components). The highest mineral content in both groups was potassium (K), with magnesium (Mg) being higher in the OD group (15.32%) than in the FD group (9.95%). Conclusion: The drying method affects the quality and composition of Barangan banana peel. Freeze drying resulted in lower moisture content and greater phytochemical diversity, whereas oven drying tended to preserve higher mineral content for certain elements. The simplicia of Barangan banana peel from both methods has potential to be developed as a preventive dental material.

Abstract

Telemedicine is a telecommunication technology in healthcare that has expanded rapidly, especially during COVID-19. Its implementation varies between developed and developing countries, raising questions about its impact on patient satisfaction and the factors influencing it. This study aims to evaluate the impact of telemedicine on patient satisfaction across developed and developing countries and to identify key factors influencing satisfaction to inform improvements in telemedicine delivery models. The systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. The search utilized keywords related to telemedicine and patient satisfaction. The inclusion criteria focused on peer-reviewed articles published between 2020 and 2025, resulting in 14 studies (seven from developed countries and seven from developing countries) being analyzed. Data were extracted and synthesized following the PRISMA guidelines. The analysis identified 14 eligible studies. The findings indicate that telemedicine generally has a positive impact on patient satisfaction, with high satisfaction levels reported across various settings. For example, studies from Sweden and India reported that approximately 78-93% of patients expressed satisfaction or willingness to reuse the telemedicine service. However, several challenges were identified, particularly in developing countries such as Indonesia and the Philippines, including service costs, limited digital infrastructure, and low technological literacy

Abstract

Diabetic wounds are chronic wounds that are susceptible to bacterial infection and therefore require optimal therapy. Robusta coffee beans (Coffea Canephora L.) are known to contain various active compounds, including polyphenols, alkaloids, and flavonoids, which have antibacterial potential. This study aimed to develop a gel preparation based on Robusta coffee bean extract and to assess its antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis and its physical properties. The extract was obtained through a maceration process using 96% ethanol and then formulated into three concentration variations: F1 (30%), F2 (50%), and F3 (75%). The tests included phytochemical screening, organoleptic evaluation, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, and antibacterial activity testing using the disc diffusion method. The screening results indicated the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and terpenoids in the extract. All gel formulations had good physical properties, with a pH ranging from 5.42 to 6.33 and a spreadability of 5.0 to 6.7 cm. Antibacterial activity increased with increasing extract concentration, indicated by the inhibition zone diameters of 11.98 mm (F1), 17.76 mm (F2), and 18.49 mm (F3), respectively. Thus, the Robusta coffee bean extract gel preparation meets the topical physical requirements and has the potential to be used as an alternative therapy for diabetic wounds.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between the Gingival Index (GI) and the levels of Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) in the saliva of gingivitis patients after Scaling and Root Planing (SRP). A total of 36 gingivitis patients aged 15-24 years who underwent SRP in Padang City were included in the study. GI was assessed using the WHO probe, and saliva samples were collected on day 7 after SRP using the unstimulated saliva method. MMP-8 levels in the saliva were analyzed using an ELISA kit. The results showed higher average MMP-8 levels in the moderate and severe gingivitis groups compared to the mild group, but with considerable individual variation. The Kruskal-Wallis test revealed that the difference in MMP-8 levels among GI categories was not statistically significant (p = 0.584). Although there was a trend of increasing levels, these results suggest that MMP-8 cannot be used as a sole determinant of gingivitis severity and is better utilized as a supportive biomarker when combined with other clinical parameters.

Abstract

Background: Butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) is rich in antioxidants and bioactive compounds that may protect the kidney from nephrotoxic injury. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the nephroprotective effect of ethanolic extract of butterfly pea flower in gentamicin-induced rats. Methods: This in vivo experimental study used 30 male Wistar rats divided into five groups: normal control, negative control, and three treatment groups receiving butterfly pea flower extract at doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kgBW. The extract was administered orally, while gentamicin 100 mg/kgBW was given intraperitoneally. Parameters observed included BUN, urea, IL-6, TNF-α, renal morphology, kidney weight, and histopathology. Results: Gentamicin increased BUN, urea, IL-6, and TNF-α levels and caused histopathological damage and morphological changes in the kidney. Administration of butterfly pea flower extract reduced inflammatory response, improved histopathology, and restored renal morphology and kidney weight toward normal. The best histopathological improvement was observed at 200 mg/kgBW, whereas the strongest anti-inflammatory effect was found at 400 mg/kgBW. Conclusion: Ethanolic extract of butterfly pea flower has potential as a nephroprotective agent against gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity.

Abstract

Candida albicans is a major cause of invasive candidiasis with high morbidity and mortality rates, and it has shown increasing resistance to antifungal agents. The objective of this research to evaluate the antifungal activity of Coffea canephora peel and leaf extract against Candida albicans in vitro by determining the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC). Robusta coffee peel and leaves were extracted using maceration with 96% ethanol, followed by phytochemical screening and antifungal activity testing using the broth dilution method. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, phenolic-tannins, flavonoids, saponins, and terpenoids, while steroid were not detected. Based on the antifungal activity test conducted separately, both extracts had the same MIC value at a concentration of 12,5%. Statistical analysis using One Way ANOVA demonstrated a significant difference among treatment groups (p<0,05). The antifungal activity of the extract is presumed to be associated with phenolic compounds, such as chlorogenic acid and caffeine, which may act through disruption of cell membrane integrity and inhibition of ergosterol synthesis. These finding suggest that Coffea canephora peel and leaf extract has the potential to be further developed as an antifungal agent, especially in topical formulations, but further toxicity tests and in vivo tests are required.

Abstract

Toman fish (Channa micropeltes) is a freshwater fish widely found in Kalimantan and known for its high nutritional value, particularly its albumin and omega-3 fatty acid content. However, studies regarding the metabolite profile and albumin levels of this species are still limited compared with other snakehead fish species. This study aimed to analyze the protein profile and determine the albumin levels of toman fish collected from three regions in South Kalimantan, namely Barito Kuala, Banjarmasin, and Banjarbaru. Albumin extraction was carried out using the Ultrasonic-Assisted Extraction (UAE) method. Qualitative characterization of protein functional groups was performed using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy in the range of 4000–400 cm⁻¹, while quantitative determination of albumin levels was conducted using UV–Vis spectrophotometry at a wavelength of 642 nm with bromocresol green (BCG) reagent. The results showed that the highest albumin level was obtained from Banjarmasin samples (0.560 ± 0.0343 %w/w), followed by Barito Kuala (0.542 ± 0.0416 %w/w), whereas the lowest level was observed in Banjarbaru samples (0.431 ± 0.0261 %w/w). ATR-FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of albumin in all samples through the identification of characteristic amide I (~1650 cm⁻¹) and amide II (~1550 cm⁻¹) absorption bands. Statistical analysis indicated that differences in albumin levels among sampling locations were not statistically significant (p > 0.05), although numerical variations were observed and may be associated with environmental and habitat conditions. Overall, the combination of UV–Vis spectrophotometry and ATR-FTIR proved effective for the characterization and determination of albumin in Channa micropeltes.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a major global health problem and a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Although effective antihypertensive medications are widely available, poor medication adherence remains a significant challenge in achieving optimal blood pressure control, particularly among productive-age patients. Objective: This scoping review aimed to identify and synthesize evidence on the determinants of medication adherence among productive-age hypertensive patients (aged 18–59 years) in primary care settings. Methods: The review followed the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) framework and the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar for articles published between 2016 and 2026. Studies involving productive-age participants (18–59 years) that examined determinants of adherence to antihypertensive medication were included. Results: A total of 14 studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings revealed that medication adherence among productive-age hypertensive patients was influenced by multiple factors, including sociodemographic characteristics (age, education, economic status), self-efficacy, health literacy, treatment-related factors (regimen complexity, side effects), healthcare system support (effective communication, counseling), social support, and digital health interventions (mobile applications, electronic reminders). Conclusion: Medication adherence among productive-age hypertensive patients is a multidimensional behavior. Comprehensive, integrated strategies are required, including patient education, enhancing self-efficacy and health literacy, simplifying treatment regimens, strengthening communication with healthcare providers, and using technology-based interventions to improve long-term adherence and blood pressure control.
